Step 1
Start by warming the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it becomes soft and translucent—this usually takes about 5 minutes. Next, toss in the carrots and ginger, pour in the vegetable broth, and let everything simmer gently for around 20 minutes, or until the carrots are really tender. Once cooked, take the pot off the heat and let it cool for a few minutes.

Step 2
Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and blend until it’s completely smooth. Pour the soup back into the pot, stir in the half and half, and warm it up over low heat. Finally, taste and season with salt and pepper to your liking before serving. Enjoy!
